How to Prepare Crispy Seitan Burgers [Vegan]

Preheat your oven to 355°F.
In a sauté pan over medium heat, add oil. Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper, and cook for a few minutes.
In a food processor, chop the seitan. Add the cooked onion and all remaining ingredients. Pulse until smooth. Check the seasoning and adjust to taste. If the batter is too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs. Refrigerate 20 minutes.
Once 20 minutes have passed, take the batter out of the refrigerator. Using your hands, form balls, roll them in breadcrumbs, and then slightly flatten them into patties. Place on a lined and lightly oiled baking tray and bake until they are firm and golden.
Or, if you prefer, you can cook them in a non-stick pan. To do that, add oil to a pan and cook until both sides are crispy and golden.
